Deficit spending is now the norm for Canadian Governments. It's not even frowned upon anymore. Spend money that you don't have and passing on the debt to your grandchildren is now the Canadian Way it would appear. Doesn't seem like a Conservative policy really but it's our Conservative Government that's spending with one hand and cutting taxes with the other. This situation ensures our debt will now start to sky-rocket even before the first Baby-Boomers retire. Unfunded liabilities are ignored as money flies out to all corners of our fine country with the word "stimulus" tagged on, which seems to make the generational theft more palatable to the masses.
Canada is crying out for proper representation from the "Right". Our Conservative Government demonstrates it's self to be left of center when it counts most. Don't forget that it was a Conservative Government that introduced the GST and it's now a Conservative Government that's spending recklessly in order to remain in power.
